ALISSA ZDANCEWICZ ELECTED TO LEAD FLORIDA’S PODIATRISTS AS 83RD FPMA PRESIDENT

Only the 4th Women Elected in History of FPMA

Sarasota, FL March 22, 2023 – Dr. Alissa Zdancewicz was elected the 83rd  president of the Florida Podiatric Medical Association (FPMA.).  Only the 4th woman in the state of Florida and the first woman from Sarasota and Bradenton region to hold the office, she oversees the policymaking board that serves Florida’s podiatrists, doctors who specialize in the treatment of the lower extremity.

Originally from Chicago, Dr Z, as she is called by her patients, practices in Bradenton and Sarasota, FL.  A partner in West Coast Podiatry Center, she enjoys helping her patients stay healthy and active.  She has previously served as president of the Manasota Podiatric Medical Association.   Teaching future doctors is also a passion of Dr. Z’s as she is on the faculty of Manatee Memorial Hospital’s Internal Medicine and Family Medicine Residency Programs.

I’m honored to lead this great organization and follow in the footsteps of my predecessors.  I look forward to embracing the challenge and will work diligently to advocate for podiatrists across the state of Florida,” stated Dr. Zdancewicz.

Her duties will include working with various FPMA committees creating the vision and budget for the next year, traveling the state, representing over 1000 podiatric physicians and surgeons, promoting the benefits of scientific advancement in the treatment, prevention, and alleviation of foot and ankle problems.

When not in one of her two offices, she attends patients at three hospitals, and 3three wound centers, she loves spending time with her family and dogs, one of which, Lisette the Frenchie, is an Instagram sensation!

She still finds time for her highest calling, helping her patients, who have given her 5 star ratings.

Appointments can be made with Dr. Zdancewicz at her West Coast Podiatry offices in Sarasota and Bradenton by calling 941-366-2627 or going to westcoastpodiatry.com
